IMPORTANT: Capital at Risk. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. For Professional Investors only with the exception of Switzerland where the Fund is approved for Qualified and non-Qualified investors. Investment involves risk. The value of investments, the funds and the income which may be generated from them can go down as well as up and therefore investors must be able to bear the risks of a substantial impairment or loss of their entire investments. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Bertrand Faure provides insight regarding his views on “the most hated rally in history”, in which stock markets climbed in the midst of a devastating health and economic crisis and how he has navigated the Strategic European Smaller Companies Fund through this period.
Eric Vanraes, portfolio manager of the E.I. Sturdza Funds plc – Strategic Bond Opportunities Fund, provides insight on his assessment of the major influencers of fixed income markets today – macro data, central banks, equity markets, flows and rating agencies and how he reflects these in his three step investment process:
1. Top-down analysis seeking to identify the optimal allocation between two types of risk, pure duration and credit risk;
2. The allocation between these two risk categories, considering nominal and real yields, with credit risk introduced through different markets;
3. Bottom-up analysis: bond picking based on in-depth credit analysis to establish the portfolio.
Eric believes that a fixed income portfolio should consist of high quality and liquidity issues, with a low correlation to equities.
